Envivio will display this new solution at IBC 2010 in Amsterdam, September 10-14, on Stand 1.D72.

The Envivio Three Screens headend supports streaming video with Adobe Flash Media Server (version 3.5 and later), HTTP Dynamic Streaming and also content protection with Adobe Flash Access. Exclusive Envivio Extreme(TM) Compression optimizes video quality for a given bitrate to provide the foundation for an excellent quality of experience for subscribers. The headend uses Extreme Compression to create the spectrum of video streams needed to take maximum advantage of HTTP Dynamic Streaming with full support for adaptive bitrate technology and to ensure uninterrupted video delivery to consumer devices. HTTP Dynamic Streaming is more efficient than progressive downloads, eliminating the need to download the entire stream while supporting sophisticated features including DVR functionality and interactive seeking. Envivio is also continuing its long-standing support for progressive delivery of Adobe Flash media.

"Envivio's video delivery solutions are known for flexibility that enables live and on-demand video to be delivered to consumers no matter where they are or what type of device they are using. The broad appeal of the Adobe Flash Platform makes it an important consideration for any content owner who wants to bring their service to the largest audience possible," said Boris Felts, vice president of marketing, Envivio. "The addition of support for HTTP Dynamic Streaming and Adobe Flash Access 2.0, expands the technology choices available to our customers so that they can reach even more people from the same Three Screen headend they already use. Envivio's continuing goal is to provide assurance to content owners that our technology will proactively evolve to enable them to meet the demands of customers and deliver content in every important format."

"With the rapid advancements in video delivery, it is great to see a company like Envivio extend its commitment to the Adobe Flash Platform," said Kevin Towes, senior product manager for Flash Media Server at Adobe. "Together we are enabling media companies to pursue new markets and opportunities based on a solid technical foundation that delivers the quality of experience needed to attract and retain subscribers."
